We were told we could not graduate till we wrote letters of apology to the security company , the transit company and the university, as well as pay for the replacement of the broken pane. Fair enough. We did all this, and then 3 months later we all received a letter stating we could not graduate, and due to our reprehensible conduct were facing possible expulsion.
The bus stop had since been removed due to repeated acts of vandalism (though we were the only ones to ever be caught)
I ended up meeting with some of the college top brass, and a lady from the transit company. They were pushing for maximum punishment to make examples of us. Through ass kissing, grovelling, showing them our excellent marks, lack of any sort of criminal record, and mentioning how the campus pub had over served us they agreed to let us graduate if we attended a restorative justice meeting.
We had to bring our parents, or someone who'd be disappointed if they knew what we did, and have a chat with people from the university, the RCMP, the transit company and the security company. IT really sucked., but I got my little piece of paper, avoided criminal charges (and never told my parents) Apparently one of the security guards had to go on stress leave due to some of the names and comments we directed towards him. Apparently one of us also gave him the full on monkeybrains moon, too.
Similar bullshit.
